Answer:  A)  C5H8O2

Explanation:  Let's assume we have 100 grams of the unknown compound.  We can then find grams for each element by multiply it's percentage times 100g.  (e.g., carbon at 60% gives 60 grams of C).  Then divide the mass of each element by it's molar mass.  That will normalize the number of that element in relation to the others.  E,g,, the 60 grams of carbon, divided by its molar mass of 12.01 g/mole gives 5 moles of C atoms.  For H we get 8, and for O we get 2.  That gives us the empirical formula C5H8O2

Calculate the energy of a photon with a frequency of 2.36 x 10-19 Hz.
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Explanation:

energy for photon is calculated in same wasy as for electromagnetic radiation

energy for electromagnetic radiation = hf

where f is the frequency of photon

h is Planck's constant = h = 4.14 × 10−15 eV · s.

thus

energy of photon = 4.14 × 10−15 eV · s *  2.36 x 10-19 Hz

energy of photon = 9.77 * 10−(-15+ -19) eV

energy of photon = 9.77 * 10−34eV        answer

What is the term for a reaction in which a substance gains an electron
Scorpion4ik [409]

Every redox reaction consists of two parts, the oxidation and the reduction. Each one separately is called a half - reaction. During the redox reaction there is a transfer of electrons from the substance being oxidized to the substance being reduced.

What are the similarities and differences between protons and neutrons
storchak [24]

"Electric charge: the proton and electron are electrically charged, while the neutron is not. The proton and electron, however, are oppositely charged. Role in the atom: Protons and neutrons are closely bound together in the nucleus of an atom, while electrons are spread out around the nucleus."

The single most important factor influencing potassium ion secretion is ________
Ne4ueva [31]

The single most important factor influencing potassium ion secretion is its concentration in blood plasma.

<h3>What is Plasma?</h3>

This is the liquid portion of the blood and serves as the transport medium for nutrients in the body.

When there is a high concentration in the plasma, it maximizes the concentration gradient which favors its secretion into the urinary fluid.
